EA down on Wii, but not out - willing to work with Nintendo to make software sell

They have a few ~1m sellers on the Wii, I'm not sure they have much to complain about except their own efforts.

Grand Slam Tennis sold 410k so far, I think that's decent sales for a good effort from EA...

Dead Space Extraction is not selling well, but it was always a risk to launch one more on-rail shooter on a platform which already has several good ones with more brand name (at least RE:UC and House of the Dead).

Any other games they might be complaining about?

 

 

I guess they're not happy at all with the Boom Blox sequel, but hey, they are the ones to blame: too much of the same, too soon, with no advertising and an ugly box art? Guess what happens? I like the game (to play with my kids), but i'm glad i got it very cheap (20 euros)...

They should have waited, and released an awesome WM+ sequel with more original ideas: then it could have made an impact... and i mean c'mon, they weren't even able to capitalize on the fact it's a Spielberg inspired game, even with the first one: how lame is that?

But anyway, EA has never been that creative, and i usually never buy anything from them: Tiger Woods with WM+ seems to have nice controls, but i won't pay the full price as it looks just as ugly as the older versions i've rented in the past...

And then there's Dead Space Extraction... but HotD is enough for me (got it in 2nd hand, btw), and i now wait for Sin & Punishment 2: i don't need more on-rails experiences... i'll rent it, maybe, but pay 50 euros, or even 20 euros? No, thanks...

What's left? That's the problem: nothing... so they can say whatever they want: bring the games first, and then we'll talk...
